Sunday at SPUMC - April 4th, 2010

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Today was a wonderful day of CELEBRATING the Risen Christ!

We had an early service at 8:30am with 60 people in attendance! We celebrated with a lively and fun service - noisemakers, great music, communion, and Alleluias galore! We left with the message that there are days that feel like Good Friday... But Sunday's always comin!

The Children had their Egg hunt between the services - and seemed to be having a lot of fun! The bigger kids ran around the outside scooping up eggs (and showing me their HUGE bags of candy afterwards!), and the little ones got to find eggs inside (a little bit easier, and less intimidating, hunt!). The weather was beautiful and the kids were excited - a perfect way to spend the morning!

The second service was also a wonderful CELEBRATION! The noisemakers continued, the music was amazing, the flowers and decorations were dazzling! Pastor Penny reminded us of the amazing gift of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection for us all - and that God is big enough to surprise us in ways we could never imagine (but we CAN expect!).

And thanks to the Fellowship Team for a wonderful brunch and goodies!

We hope all of you had an amazing day of worship, laughter, smiles, time with family, and grace in the presence of God! We'll see you next week!
